Inactivegrahamlthompson Thank you for the video picture setup links which I had previously view. Sony also sent me a setup picture listing.
When I stated HDMI’s are correctly set I mean they are individually set for each different hardware connected.
Iv’e bee using Photoshop for past 20 years and use it weekly.
All this does not solve the issue of 4000T producing soft picture output.
To put it into perceptive I have 20/20 vision (recent eye test) so possibly I’m more critical.

ParticipantI had my annual eye-test yesterday. I also have 20-20 vision with my prescription not changed in 3 yrs. No problem reading the bottom line and the smallest print.
It’s possible your 4000T may be faulty. As others have said the picture quality is usually superb given a good source. Sometimes content is deliberately soft and has grain added in order to give a filmic effect.
I find the studio shows like Pointless are always pin sharp.
Until you have a 1:1 source to destination pixel match, the scaling from 1920 x 1080 to 3840 x 2160 is bound to introduce picture artefacts.
If you get close enough to the screen these should be visible compared to a 1920 x 1080 display where no scaling is required.

Inactivegraham uk – 14 hours ago » …An added option on the Humax of tweaking the sharpness would solve the problem, after all it’s just a TV without a screen.
By all means contact Humax with that request, but I sincerely wish you good luck with that one. Over the past 6 years there have been multiple users expressing irritation with features of the Humax STBs. Humax simply ignore them and go their own way. In contrast I Googled “Humax soft picture” and, other than your post, got no results in the past 6 years for any of the G2 products.

Please could you just confirm what output resolution setting the FVP-4000T is using?

You will need to keep an eye on it as mine never stays locked into 1080p, it often reverts back to 1080i and I have no idea why.

Likely to be a handshake issue with the TV telling the box it doesn’t do 1080p. You could try a new hdmi cable and/or a different HDMI socket on the TV.
